I genuinely didn't think I would enjoy this as much as I did. Granted, I did find the characters annoying at times, and the plot was really predictable. I wish I had read this when I was younger because I'm sure I would have eaten up the whole series. I do plan on continuing because the way this book ended left a lot to be desired (I've read enough fanfiction based on this plot to know how it ends, but I need closure). My favourite thing about it was probably the premise, and my absolute least favourite thing was Aspen. I hope he gets what's coming to him.

This took me a while to get into because the start is very slow. Once it actually gets going, it's very hard to put this book down. The characters are very well written and feel like they have real relationships and problems, which seems to be rare in fantasy stories. There were some plot points that I wonder if they were supposed to be twists because they were pretty obvious to me, but it doesn't take away from my enjoyment. There were a lot of perspectives thrown in, but I feel like it was done very well and I was never confused about who we were following. I also really liked the Scottish feel of the book.

I didn't know what else to call this. But does anyone else check the receipt that you get when checking out library books and see the total $$ for what you saved? I don't know why, but I always like seeing how much I save each time I check books out from the library.
Right now I have saved $499.72 just by visiting the library.

Lets all of us mention one book or more which we really dislike ( or hate) because it promotes something very toxic, lays out a very obviously wrong narrative. I am not talking about, 'this book was cringe and boring', I am talking about, 'the idea that was promoted in this book could be proved very dangerous if taken seriously.
A book that I genuinely dislike is Ugly love by collen hoover. This book has a male lead who has no sense of respect for the female lead, a female lead who has no sense of self respect and keeps on returning to that emotionally immature boy who cannot for the love of God get over his ex and handle his emotional baggage himself. I have read It ends with us and it starts with us. I disliked them both but my problem with them does not align with the topic of this post, they were not promoting abusive relationships (she does end up getting away from that abusive guy). Never read anything else by that author again, and never will.

Hii! Wish you all a happy Sunday! I have a little question. I saw many folks here having super cute and organised shelves (even with dividers!!), and I wanted to try this too. Do you know if there's a way to move shelves around, so I can put them in the order I prefer the most? š§ I'm lazy and I don't want to remake them all from zero lol
